Friday June 22, 2007 And I thought 97˚ (36˚ C) was hot...
After Wednesday's record-tying high temperature of 97˚ F (36˚ C), we did two better than that here in Sun-Broomfield-land yesterday:
RECORD EVENT REPORT
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BOULDER, CO
211 PM MDT THU JUN 21 2007
..NEW RECORD HIGH TEMPERATURE SET IN DENVER
THE TEMPERATURE AT DENVER INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT CLIMBED TO 99 DEGREES AT 1:26 PM MDT THIS AFTERNOON SETTING A RECORD HIGH FOR THIS DATE. THE OLD RECORD WAS 98 DEGREES SET IN 1922.
With the summer solstice occurring yesterday just after noon local time (1806 GMT), it's fitting to refer to yesterday's weather as "summer heat!" Will we tie or break another record high temperature today? Fortunately, no. Some slightly cooler air moved in from the north last night while moisture arrived from the east. Today will be more like 90˚ rather than 99˚.
